Unfortunately, in Table 5 of the original article, the parameter in the 5th row was published incorrectly as “LDL-C (mg/dL)”. The correct parameter should read as “HDL-C (mg/dL)”.

In addition, under the acknowledgment section, the following sentences were incorrectly published as Kouya Honda (Honda Medical Clinic, Tokyo) however it should read as Kouya Honda (Honda Medical Clinic, Nagasaki). Similarly, Yuichi Takakaze (Takakaze Dental Clinic, Tokyo) should read as Yuichi Takakaze (Takakaze Dental Clinic, Nagasaki).
